Chapter 20: The Living Creature
I was coldly asked by the tiger girl, and looking at the huge face that turned around and changed shape at some point hidden behind the dense branches, my scalp was crispy and numb, and the nervous heartbeat and rapid breathing of more than a dozen people were extremely clear in the quiet and treacherous atmosphere.
Behind her, a few white-robed people were about to kneel down to worship the new "stone god" in the posture of worshiping "Lao Tan", but they were stopped by the tiger girl, and she shouted "Shandan" in her mouth to warn everyone that this is a dangerous devil, and it is by no means the true god who protects them.
The hook swallowed with a pale face and said in the native language: "I... I hadn't noticed the direction of this stone face just now, but I'm sure the face we just saw wasn't the one we saw now! ”;
Hei Niu saw that Huya was looking at him, as if he wanted to hear his thoughts, but unexpectedly immediately deaf and pulled his ears and said, "I didn't just ... I didn't look at the stone face, I... Just... Just watching... Look at you";
The look on the black bull's face did not amuse the tiger girl, she still wrinkled her eyebrows, looked at me with a cold face, and said, "Shanna, you have to have an idea...";
"Let everyone stay where they are, and be careful of triggering the traps", I thought for a moment, this is the most important thing to do right now;
"As for the stone face... The hook is right, and I can't say it if it's facing or not, but the face is definitely not like this, you can see for yourself, the stone face just now is full of moss, you look at the current one... Slippery! ”;
Although I didn't know how to say it in the local language, I did my best to say it;
"Could this statue be double-sided? What did we just look at the other side? As he spoke, the hook was about to walk behind the stone face...
"Don't move! If it's really two-faced, then hell! When I first saw this stone face, I looked around in a circle, and there was absolutely nothing on the back! And, what is the difference between this face and the one just now? ”;
In fact, I don't need to remind at all, each of them can see clearly, compared with the one just now, although they are expressionless, but this stone face always makes people feel that it is cold and resentful, and the branches and leaves around it make people feel frightened at a glance!
"Could this be the wood god turned into a stone god?" The hook seemed a little frightened, and leaned over to me and asked;
"Ishigami's ass!" , I took a sip, thinking in my heart that don't think about feudal superstition, don't talk about the stone god, even the wood god is made up by Lao Tzu!
"Blindfolding", I said three words with a low face;
I believe that many people have seen a kind of thing, different angles can see different pictures, with the change of angle and change posture, expression, if all this in front of you is really created by the human beings left on this desert island by a civilized society like me, then this technology will be used on the stone face.
"Shanna, why don't I take the black bull over and take a closer look?" , the tiger girl stared intently at the stone face and said;
"Don't, this thing is evil, we can't afford to take this risk, we will be silent here for a while, and if there is no movement, we will leave here as planned, huh? Did any of you see the hook? As I was talking, I turned my head and suddenly found that the hook that was standing beside me was missing, and I hurriedly asked the two white-robed men who were holding me;
Before he could finish speaking, suddenly the branches on the head of the stone face moved, and then a figure jumped from the tree like a monkey to the top of the stone face, and by the light of the torch, it was the hook!
"Auntie, what are you going to do?" , I was shocked when I saw it, for fear that this girl with rough branches and leaves on weekdays would trigger some mechanism to bury our dozen lives in this dense forest where no one would find the bones for tens of thousands of years;
I saw the hook's hand touch the back, and the backhand felt out a crossbow arrow in his hand, and stabbed it out towards the top of the stone face's head, and the click came, and the crossbow arrow was broken into two, and the hook at this time had already rolled down from the top of the stone face's head, splashing a layer of water, and the pants were wet and waterlogged and walked back, grinning and saying:
"Look, stone...", the more she spoke, the bigger her mouth became, and that look suddenly reminded me of the big-mouthed girl Yao Chen who played Cuiping in the TV series "Latent";
After paying attention, the "Puff" hook sat in the water, and the smile on her face disappeared, and she was frowning at the tiger girl;
"If you act privately, I will cut your hair naked and let you be a bitter slave!" , Hu Ya squatted down and bared her teeth at the hook and said, so frightened that the hook kicked his legs in the water and retreated several meters;
I patted Huya on the shoulder to make her stand up, and then reached out to pull up the hook that was already rolling with tears in her eyes, and Huya saw that she was casting a spell on me with those big eyes that would hook people, and bared her teeth at the hook again and said: "What will I do in the future, tell me and Shanna first, otherwise I will not only cut my hair, but also gouge out my eyes!" Her indifferent expression didn't show that she was scaring the hook at all, and she was completely a businesslike face;
I couldn't help it, I comforted the hook a few more words, but I was relieved in my heart, this place is full of weirdness, so that we are all nervous, and thanks to the hook is bold to go up and try it, in fact, to put it bluntly, isn't that a big stone? Although it is engraved with a human face, it is still a stone, and it can still become a refinement? Our nervousness just now was completely scaring ourselves!
Just when I was hesitating, suddenly there was a muffled sound from the direction of the stone face, which made the atmosphere that had just calmed down suddenly tense again;
The tiger girl glared at the hook, and her expression seemed to say that it was all your little prodigal hooves... He looked at me again and said, "Shanna, don't move any of you stay here, I'll go and see for myself," and as she spoke, she took out the dagger that belonged to me behind her;
"I... I'm with... I'll go with you", the black bull stammered, and the tiger girl just barely squeezed out a smile at the black cow when she heard this, without agreeing or objecting, the black bull even insisted on walking in front of the tiger girl with a torch, and walked towards the stone face with a deep foot and a shallow foot;
I know Tiger Ya's temper, so I didn't stop her, she's the kind of person who will do what she decides, and it seems to me that she just asked my opinion... It's just a formality;
The distance of more than ten meters is coming in an instant, and I was just about to shout "You two be careful, don't touch anything", when I suddenly saw the black bull throw the torch in his hand into the sky, and sat in the water, and was pulled up by the tiger girl in an instant, and then turned around and ran in our direction, shouting while running:
"Run! Alive! That thing is alive! ”;
At this time, the torch was falling impartially on the top of the stone face's head, and the tree oil and flames flowed on the stone face's forehead with the impact. The corners of its mouth seemed to be slowly upturning, while its eyes were rolling, and in the glow of the fire, the expressionless face actually revealed an extraordinary grin!
